If your representative is dodging in-person town halls, call them out! Tag them and demand they face their constituents.

Here is a 2018 conversation between Jeff Bezos and German publisher Matthias Döpfner at a Business Insider event. Presumably, he is as crimson as a Washington State cherry today:

This is evil. Pure evil.

Veterans gave it all for this country, but Trump and Musk just fired nearly 6,000 of them. And where are the House Republicans? . . . Selling out our Veterans to billionaires!!!

Trump used the last four years to turn the GOP into an anti-democratic war machine. And he is not done wreaking havoc. That is the stark reality we face. If we truly care about the future of free and fair elections, we must take the threat Trump poses to our elections literally and seriously.

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

I want to salute the Governor of Maine Janet Mills who, in that room with a raging Trump and silent complicitors, stood her ground and said, “see you in court!” Maine residents, show your support for your Gov for standing up for your independence.

Dear @cnn.com, The judge did not “vacate” the trial. He adjourned it. Then he appointed an amicus curiae to argue against dismissing the charges. Who writes your headlines?

A lot of folks have asked me what they can do to fight back. One way is to support candidates in special elections like this one in New York.

This is one of the most beautiful and powerful things I’ve ever read. I was cheering and crying as I read it. Do you want to know who is doing something? @marcelias.bsky.social is one of the doers and you should support his work if you are able.

President Zelenskyy tears down Trump's lies; states that Trump lives in a Russian Disinformation bubble: "The U.S. has provided Ukraine with $67 billion in military aid and $31 billion in budget support. .... Trump’s $500 billion fossil fuel claim isn’t a serious conversation." #StandWithUkraine 📹🧵

Elon Musk fired a disabled Veteran with 3 tours of duty from his job serving other Veterans at the VA. Elon’s companies get billions from defense contracts. He’s happy to profit off our servicemembers - but when he can no longer make money off them, he kicks them to the curb.

It is perfectly legal to know your rights and to educate others about them, too. EVERYONE in the United States, citizen or not, has rights. I will not allow this administration to intimidate us from helping you know about them. Here’s our shareable guide ⬇️: (pt. 1/2)

One of our supporters shared this with us—people are getting creative tonight!

Leader Schumer and Leader Jeffries: I know there's a lot going on right now, but when the Pope, from halfway around the world, is more forcefully calling out Trump's horrific anti-migrant actions, that's a pretty clear sign you need to step it up on the messaging.

Nearly $7 million has been “apportioned” over the past week to cover DOGE-related expenses.

A great website tracking all the companies that have bent the knee to Trump and eliminated their DEI programs, and all the companies that have stood strong. www.dei.watch

It's a coup.

Good morning! Mike Johnson has me locked up.

Let’s brainstorm a minute about the newfound hostility of Elon towards South Africa and Trump’s sudden passionate defense of White farmers in RSA. Ok, they’re both white supremacists. Sure. But this photo is from a Sept 2024 meeting. Everything seemed peachy. I have thoughts….

Read this important thread by one of our best thinkers. Well worth your time.

My firm is willing to represent pro bono those fired in this unlawful and vindictive purge. These dedicated civil servants were performing their jobs and upholding the rule of law.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
